I'm not fond of some of the classes or play as one myself and want else on companions, but I try to keep them lore friendly.

Shadowhear I first made a monk, on 2nd playthrough first a paladin, but changed her to a Fighter eventually and I love the positive battle impact.
Halsin I changed to a Bear Heart Barbarian. I'm not fond of Druids in fights, not sure why.
Wyll I always respec, also not fond of Warlocs. He usually ends up a paladin, but I also usually don't bring him along.
Karlach I made a ranger.
Astarion also a ranger.
Gale I keep a wizard, because I cannot find any lore friendly class other than a wizard and also tbh I don't mind wizards at all.
Made Lae'Zel a Vlakith cleric.
I'd respect Jaheira, but I cannot bear the fake sounding accent, so I don't bring her anywhere.

I always respec Shadowheart into anything but Trickery domain, usually Light or Life. I also generally respec all companions just to fix their ability scores, some of them are terrible by default.

I didn't realize till my second playthrough how much better light domain is. It's massively more powerful. You get a great support reaction, more useful channel divinity (massive AoE radiant damage), and a bunch of useful fire spells including fire ball and flame wall. 10/10, would respec again.
